Coming August 31st, "The Spectre of Lonely Souls" will be the second full-length from Chilean thrashers HELLISH. This is high-velocity, almost out of control thrash with a fog of evil hanging around it, as patented and perfected by South Americans going back to the mid-80s. Fans of their labelmates RIPPER should find plenty to love here. "The Spectre of Lonely Souls" is planned as a CD and digital release for now.

Here's the first (non-intro) track from Hellish's new album - go check out "The Night," as well as Invisible Oranges' thorough write-up of the album and its influences. "[F]urious and forceful rhythms like a Bavarian beer hall kicked into overdrive, dive-bomb guitar solos, and hoarse reverb-echoed yelps from Claudio Miranda who goes by the nom-de-metal Necromancer because, of course."

CDs begin shipping this weekend. The album is getting great reviews so far, too:

"An evil sounding record, it really appeals to the darker, more sinister side of the soul as The Screams Come from Inside, The Curse Upon Us, The Walker of Shadows and Sacrifice roar with untamed malice."

"On The Spectre of Lonely Souls, Hellish pays uncompromising homage to the bands which inspired them. In doing so, they made an album that can be played alongside those classics and more than hold its own."
- Invisible Oranges

"It might have taken six years to accumulate material for their debut full-length in 2016 but Hellish are striking still-hot iron two years later on follow up 'The Spectre of Lonely Souls'. A release that sees the band finally arriving as a world class thrash entity."
- Grizzly Butts

"It is difficult to be critical of Hellish because they succeed at everything they set out to do... Ultimately, Hellish has crafted a delightfully haunting effort that should appeal to thrash and black metal fans alike!"
